There have been some complaints from
people in this city, who say they were not
called upon by the Martins Ferry Solicit
ing Committee on Monday. All who feel
inclined to give can send a check to Geo
II. Smith, care Commercial Bank, Martins
Ferry, o., or if the money Is turned over to
the REGISTER it will be sent to the treas
urer, and each person credited.
So far only two fatalities OF any kind
have been reported. One was the killing
of cat belonging TO Mrs. Dougan and
calf belonging to James 4. Bayless, at
the time of the cyclone in the stable ut the
rear of r. A. BlackfOrd's house on the
heights back of Martins Ferry.
The cyclone liar is just beginning TO
bloom. We heard o man say yesterday
that he saw pine shingles driven endwise
through atwO-inch oak plank, and another
who AYERS that straws were driven through
an inch pine board, but the man who wrote
the item in yesterdays InteHigenccr about
the wind sucking the side of house down
after the cyclone was past, takes the cake.
The universal regret at the loss of the
grove is becoming more and more apparent.
1t was proposed yesterday that with COM
paratively little expense the trees, or at
least part of them, could be put
into standing position and pos
sibly induced TO grow, by using
a block and tackle. 1t was sug-
gested, that if every man who felt that the
loss of our only resort was popular Calam-
ity would give one days work or the price
of one toward repairing the damage the
grove might again be put into compare
lively good shape. If the trees would take
root again and grow we would like to see
some immediate action taken. Let us
hear from some one who knows whether
they will again take root or not.

It Was Another's Child That
Died.

Some time age a married couple in
this city adopted ch Id from an insti-
tuition in Toronto, with the consent OF
the mother. who was friend or ac-
quaintance of theirs. The mother
about a week ago came to the city TO
endeavor to get her child back, but
found that it was dead and buried.
Happening to be in Toronto, she called
at the institution in question, and found
to her delight that her child was still
alive and well and an inmate of the in
stitution. The parties in the city who
had adopted the child from the institu-
ton in the belief that it was that of
their friend had, through some mis-
take, got the wrong one. st. Thomas

In France it has long been a necessity

He quotes a tariff issued by one of those
journalists who live more by the sale of
puffs than by the circulation of their

therein. The fees range from ten cents for
saying that the pay,e thereof is always
good humored," to $40 for the valuable
statement that che was yesterday recognized
on the boulevard and rapidly surrounded by

To have said that he is negotiating
terms for an engagement in Russia" is

The Queens Father and Mother.
From the London Truth.

The prince of Wales rarely makes speech
without dragging in laudatory allusion
to his s'beloved and lamented" sire, and
now we actually find Prince Albert Victor
bursting into irrelevant eulogies to his
"revered great grandfather, the duke of
Kent" of whom, I apprehend, the young
princes knowledge is what Lord Beacons-
field would have termed "blundering and
defective" The duke of Kent was a sly
and maneuvering parsonage, who passed
his very restless life in contracting debts
which his daughter paid 20 years after his.
death. The duke was principally remark
able after he was ''emancipated" as the
French would say, for his truly Gargantuan
appetite, combining within himself the
attributes of gorging Jack and a guzzling
Jimmy. The duke of Kent was by far the
weakest OF the sons of George III. in force
of character and in intellectual power, and
if he had lived he would have been entirely
under the dominion of his wife, who was
cunning and very mischievous intriguer,
until she was so so uncermoniously shunted
by the queen when her majesty came to the
throne, after which, being sensible woman,
she abstained from any sort of interference
with public affairs. People often spec
ulated what would have have followed the
accession to the throne of Ernest duke of
Cumberland, but it would have been worse
if William ". had been succeeded by the |
